Larimer County Sheriff's Office had members of our Posse, Reserve Deputies, and Patrol Deputies working all day on Friday, 041814, looking for the gun that 29-year-old JIMMY LEE JONES discarded between his initial contact on Nashua Circle and his arrest on Wilson Avenue. The areas searched were on private properties and Larimer County Sheriff's Office received permission of the owners of these properties to be on their property and conduct the search.

In addition to utilizing our Posse and Reserve Deputies, Sergeant Mike Rairdon of the Wellington unit worked with the Poudre School District and their Security Service to search all school properties due to the potential for children to get hurt if they located the weapon. All of the school grounds in Wellington were searched and cleared and the weapon was not located on any school grounds.

The gun is still at large. We’d like to remind citizens that if they happen to come across the weapon, please do not touch it or handle it and call our Dispatch Center at 970-416-1985.
